Solution
The correct option is B Nucleus
A gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Genes are made up of DNA and DNA is present inside the nucleus.
Mutations in genes can cause cancer by accelerating cell division rates or inhibiting normal controls on the system, such as cell cycle arrest or programmed cell death. As a mass of cancerous cells grows, it can develop into a tumour.
Hence Transformation of a normal cell to cancer cell may start with changes in Nucleus.
